If you've an XSD with key/keyref constraints, what is
the best XML parsing (JAXP vs JAXB) method to use in
Java?
I did some reading on this. I was inclined to use
Java-XML binding frameworks to leverage my XSD. But
JAXB 1.0 doesn't support key/keyref (meaning doesn't
support validation?? not sure).
Also not sure if JAXB 2.0 supports it.
OR should I use JAXP instead?
Parsing performance is not an issue for my
application.
I know key/keyref constraints' use at the XSD
level.
Can you access these key/keyrefs at the Java
application level?
For e.g. I need to find the number of Keyrefs
referencing the Key in my Java app?
Basically, I am trying to understand if I can
leverage these constraints at the Java level (like
accessing selector/field values, xpath expressions,
etc).
Or are these constraints are only used at the XSD
level and XML validation?
In short, how would one leverage these key/keyrefs
at the Java application level?
Thanks for any pointers.
